I ended up being jettisoned from an entire gaming circle over a clusterfuck of a relationship and various things, but there are a few key episodes which led to me being kicked from a specific group.

It started in a game I was running, where I told a player that, no, I don't follow the rules of the game as explicitly written, because I'm the GM. The rules are guidelines at best, and I will modify them freely if I think it makes the game experience better. I was not being a dick about it, just having stuff PCs did not work or any such stuff. I just added a few...Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

I realize that GW has fucked 40k up pretty bad in recent history, and that it has a lot of problems, but it still remains one of my favourite sci-fi settings for tabletop and pen & paper. Why don't we talk about the unique things it brings to the table as a universe, and things it actually does well, for once.

>>46900551The scale. The scale of the setting allows you to tell stories that involve massive struggles on a heightened level of drama, and still remain a tiny spec of the larger setting ultimately disrupting none of the established canon fans love so much.

From a distant star system you watch as your Armada defends itself and those it calls its subjects.

Creating Generals of heroic might and cunning to be the leaders and defenders of the New Necrotic Armada in your absence was a decision well made it would seem. Horizon's Drop has been defended, the Osjiic fleet reduced to scrap and the army captured and jailed in the various prisons the Armada necessitated. The system containing Station 88 prevented from returning to Confederate hands by the bluffing of Predator Eiton and the timely arrival of the Armatocere. Even...Comment too long.

Where did this ''barbarians are beasts in head on combat'' meme come from? Historically speaking most barbarians romans fought with as well as vikings relied mostly on element of surprise and ambush and usually got shitstomped when they tried to fight actual soldiers why are fantasy barbarians not utilizing any of it? It's smarter than HURR GONNA GO 1v50 xD. To be fair Celts were indeed frienzed half naked lunatics but they still got rekt.

What are some good jumps for shrinkingnot yourself but other thingsi know marvel and MCU let you get Pym particles in jump and DC,Arrowverse and Young Justice could let you learn from the Atom but I'm looking for a perk that not knowledge or tech acquired in jump

Spot the Wonder Drone flashed upwards, sliced through the crackling green shield surround the Daemonthrope, and slammed into the thing's underbelly. As Spot's psi-suppressor, er, penetrated the creature's hide, it let out a roar of unfathomable pain and fury, its shield vanished, and the daemonid minions around us collapsed into goo. We all cheered again and watched, the inky black tendrils holding the Daemonthrope aloft twisted, flickered, and then… reappeared.

“Shou-” you begin, but she's already turning her face away from you, eyes closed, flush deepening. With her left hand, she pulls down the collar of her loose nightgown, revealing her small, bare shoulder and collarbone. “Shoukaku, what the-”

She takes your captive wrist and presses your hand flat against her collar. Before you can pull away, you feel it - the small spot that throbs with unnatural heat. Yanking your hand away, you see it - it's actually glowing, ever so faintly, soft amber light barely detectable unless you look askance.

“Chrysanthemum,” you whisper softly.

She nods - and swallows nervously. “The Emperor's symbol. It marks me as his servant... his property. Kaga and the rest that fell at Midway... they still had hope of victory, at least. They sacrificed the rest of my sisters as decoys, hoping to get their 'decisive action',” she spits bitterly, “and were humiliated by a handful of tiny gunboats and escort carriers. They were thrown away - for vainglory, for desperate gambles. I don't feel like I held a line, Settle. I was just a tool for the Emperor's glory, and...” she swallows again, squeezing her eyes shut tightly as tears trickle down her cheeks. “And I come back, and only Goto's treated me any different... and you. How am I supposed to believe they won't just... *discard* me, again?”

The words sink deep into your head, vanishing into dark depths like poison pills dropped down a well. You shudder as the pantomime of the abyssal ships plays out in your head again - the eager, cute little shipgirl, battered, bloodied, still excited, still happy and proud to be useful... and the callous, quick way his hand - *your* hand - slashed out her name, before moving on to the next victim.
